Mundo de Aventuras #36
"O Assombroso Capitão Wonder" delivers a gripping tale of intrigue and hidden pasts, with Ken Bald handling writing, art, and inks in a fully self-contained story. When entrepreneur Saxon is approached by ex-convict Cuqui Kroll with a revolutionary fireproof varnish, he’s drawn into a web of secrets tied to a deceased inventor and an unsuspecting heiress. The cover by Bill Lacey and Ken Bald captures the story’s mysterious tone, all set in the 1974 Portuguese comic landscape.
In the tropical island of Losana, where dictator Quantro rules with an iron fist, Captain Jack Wonder and Lofty Loeke risk everything to deliver weapons to the resistance. Captured during the mission, Wonder is subjected to bizarre experiments by the mad scientist Varan, who uses a mysterious drug to alter living beings. Can Wonder survive the ordeal and still turn the tide for the rebels?
